Being A Goddess

I bought myself a present for my 57th birthday, a nice little keychain tag that has the word "Goddess" on it...which is me.....and I have been seeking out pleasurable moments throughout my day, enjoying walking around, inside and outside the office.....feeling good when I do the stairs and especially good when I do the stairs AND get in a bike ride, as I did yesterday, and the day before!  I am even going to ride again today and I am looking forward to my next set of stairs and little walk.  I am also looking forward to going up the new path to see where it goes, and stopping in that little alcove and cutting a bunch of catnip spires, and it will be easy because I am continually thinking to myself, yes, today I am bringing the scissors!!!  And then this evening, L & I are going to Louisville to hear CJ or somesuch Chenier........will be good!!  Looking forward to it.  Need to get more presents for myself....note to self.   As a beautiful goddess...................which I feel myself to be, and I am so fortunate in that I look good, really good at 57, and I am not even half trying......I mean I am trying....but it is not consistent effort.....so now....I am just in the Goddess zone, so that everything I do naturally brings about Goddess results......awesome results.  I see myself as a lithe, tan, muscular, vibrant, energetic Goddess...............beautiful!  And so I have cut sugar and gluten out of my diet, although I do get some....from the chocolate bunny grahams.....which I love and need due to certain indulgences.........but my main focus is eating greens and fruit.....so much wonderful fruit this time of year........it started out way too early with strawberries, then moved on to raspberries, and now blueberries and cherries........I am looking forward to apricots and peaches.........nectarines......and eating arugula and avocado and tomatoes and blueberries and green smoothies.....

I am in love with plants....I have flowers and cacti, tomatoes, peppers, parsley, lettuces, tomatillos, watermelon, cantelope/muskmelon, zucchini and yellow crook neck squash, a cardoon, patio tomatoes in pots, kale, arugula, chard, and cilantro, not to mention a large glorious avocado plant, a rubber plant that is sprouting new leaves all over the place, 2 beautiful hanging baskets of flowering plants, a lovely fuschia, and a wonderful orangey million bells and a cool little wildflower that I must transplant this weekend.....it's all great.   And I am going to see about mulching other areas of the yard or getting rid of all of the newspapers I have accumulated in anticipation of such happenings........

life is good!!!

ciao bella!
